Trend Alert: Pin-Up Girls

by 5

Think you need to strip to your lacy underthings to be a pin-up girl? Think again. At Carolina Herrera and Donna Karan, hair pins transformed basic hairstyles into something fresh and innovative. And best of all, trying this runway look doesn't cost much money — just a couple of bucks for hair pins, and you're good to go. Arrange them in angular groups as Orlando Pita did at Carolina Herrera, or space them out to create the illusion of movement as seen at Donna Karan. Finally, when it comes to "business in the front, party in the back," we no longer need to think of mullets.

mullet or not, it's still ugly.

Overdose. Holy cow. Bad enough getting all those things in your hair...how much of a pain (literally and figuratively) would it be to get them all out?! I've had enough of the "find the last pin when my head hits the pillow" to know better than try this look.

I agree emalove--not a fan of this look at all.

I'm sorry, I think her hair looks like a mess. I like hair accessories, but this is terrible.

I prefer the actual curls once you take the pins out. ;) Although on the DK link the bun with the pins as accessories was so neat!!
